First printing of this main paper in the working out of the Kinetic Theory of Gases in which Clausius announced his determination of the equation governing the mean free path lenght of a molecule moving freely in gases. By this he inscribed his name as one of the founders of the Kinetic Theory of Gases."Clausius was one of the founders of the kinetic theory of gases and of the science of thermodynamics. He and Lord Kelvin at about the same time and independently announced the Second Law of thermodynamics. Clausius particularly developed the theory of thermodynamics by applying it to the study of gases and vapors."Magie in "A Source Book in Physics" p. 228."In order to analyze the process of molecular collisions Clausius adopted a simplified model for his admittedly complicated molecule. He assumed that whatever the actual patterns on intermolecular forces one could suppose that there is some advantage distance between the centers of molecules which would represent a general boundary between attractive and repulsive forces. If two molecules were to approach each other within that boundary repulsion would generally occur. Thus the very complex problem of intermolecular action was reduced to a "billiard ball" model."

Entire issue offered. Clausius' paper: pp. 73-112. With titlepage to volume 116. First appearance of the paper in which Clausius makes importent contributions to the generalization and understanding of the Second Law of Thermodynamics by introducing the concept of disgregation and proving the equivalence of the transformation of heat."Clausius began that search for understanding in 1862 by introducing the concept of disgregation a concept that he said was based on an idea he had long held: that the force of heat for performing mechanical work both internal and external together was proportional to the absolute temperature.13 Clausius had never stated this idea explicitly before although he had argued in 1853 by adopting an analogy between a reversible steam engine and a thermocouple that the potential difference at a thermocouple junction should be proportional to the absolute temperature. In any event he now wished to assert that the work which can be done by heat in any change of the arrangement of a body is proportional to the absolute temperature multiplied by a function of molecular arrangement the disgregation Z. Given this assumption and his postulate that the heat in a body H was only a function of temperature he was able 1 to prove his theorem of the equivalence of transformations and 2 to separate the equivalence function entropy into a temperature-dependent term and a configurational-dependent term."DSB.The issue contains other notable papers Plücker "Ueber recurrente Ströme und ihre Anwendung zur Darstellung von Gasspectra" pp. 27-54 Tyndall "Ueber Strahlung und Absorption der Wärme durch gasförmige Materie" pp. 1-27. unknown

First edition of this monumental famous paper in thermodynamics in which Clausius for the first time states the Second Law of Thermodynamics one of the most importent laws of Nature having a huge impact on the development of physical theory cosmology communications and information theory. The law states that a the energy of the Universe is constant and b the Entropy of the Universe tends to a maximum."Clausius' contribution to thermostatics is comparable to those of Newton and Maxwell to mechanics and electromagnetism respectively. In the obituary J.W. Gibbs remarked that Clausiu's first memoir "marks an epoch in the history of physics."" Chowdhury and Stauffer in "Principles of Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics".In "The Nature of the Physical World" Eddington writes: "The Law that entropy increases - the Second Law of Thermodynamics - holds I think the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the Universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation - well these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the Second Law of Thermodynamics I can give You no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.".Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1850 P. hardcover

Passing electric waves through huge prisms of hard pitch he showed that they refract exactly as light waves do. He polarized electric waves by directing them through a grating of parallel wires and he diffracted them by interrupting them with a screen with a hole in it. He reflected them from the walls of the room obtaining interference between the original and the reflected waves. He focused them with huge concave mirrors casting electric shadows with conducting obstacles. The experiments with mirrors especially attracted attention as they were the most direct disproof of action at a distance in electrodynamics. They and the experiments on the finite velocity of propagation brought about a rapid conversion of European physicists from the viewpoint of instantaneous action at a distance in electrodynamics to Maxwell’s view that electromagnetic processes take place in dielectrics and that an electromagnetic ether subsumes the functions of the older luminiferous ether."

First printing of all 4 fundamental papers on electrochemistry where Hittorf states his concepts of ionic migration and transport numbers concepts that should be the foundation stones of the later evolved theory of ionization culminating in Svante Arrhenius's famous discovery of electrolytic dissociation."After Faraday's experimental investigations in 1834 it was accepted that the electricity passing through an electrolytic cell was carried by the movement of charged ions produced from the decomposition of the compounds making up the solution. Daniell had extended these ideas in 1839 and showed that salts were compounds not of acid anhydrides and metallic oxides as had been thought but of metallic cations and elemental or compound acid anions. Believing that the conductivity of solutions was due to these ions he began a study of their transference. In 1853 Hittorf took up the problem. He extended the ideas of Daneill by reasoning inthe following manner: Cations and anions exist in solutions and migrate under the influence of current through the solution. The migration of the cation toward the cathode and away from the anode and the deposition of the anode on the positive electrode together result in a decrease of teh salt in the neighborhood of the anode. A similar analysis shows that there is also a decrease in the concemtration of the salt in the neighborhood of the cathode. If the motion of the two dissimilar ions were the same the decrease in the concentration of the salt would be the same at the two electrodes.Hwe concluded that the speeds of migration.were different and he characterized this fact by defining "transport numbers" which specified the portion of the transport of electricity carried by each ion.

First German edition of one of the most importent papers in 1900th century physics and the culmination of Joule's work. The offered paper is a translation of Joule's great memoir "On the Mechanical equivalent of Heat" published 1850 and one of the founding papers of the principle of "The conservation of energy" - Joule here gave the experimental proof of the conservation law."Joule was not the first to determine the mechanical equivalent of heat. Rumford had attempted it but had come out with a value that was far too high. Mayer produced a fairly good value before Joule did but it was Joule who was most accurate up to his time who backed up his figure with a large variety of careful experimental data and who /with Thomson's help forced the view on the world of science. He therefore gets the credit and in his honour a unit of work equal to 10000000 ergs is called the Joule."Asimov. - Dibner Heralds of Science No.158 the 1843 paper.Joule's first measurement of the mechanical equivalent of heat was published.in 1843. It was made by comparing the heat generated by the current of a magnetoelectric machine with the excess of work which was used in turning the machine when the circuit was closed above that used when it was open.In the following papers in which the mechanical equivalent was measured in different ways we find the same elaborate description of the experiments and a brief statement of the final results.

First appearance of this milestone paper in organic chemistry in which he demonstrated the mutual linking together of carbon atoms developed the idea of affinity units later called "valence bonds" and thus making it possible to explain the formation of organic compounds containing large numbers of carbon atoms. This was "the final step in the development of modern structural formulas for organic compounds." Leicester & Klickstein p. 417"It was not till 1858 that a satisfactory theory of molecular constitution was advanced simultaneously and independently by thwo young chemists Friedrich August Kekulé and Archibald Scott Couper. The theory of molecular constitution put foreward.by Couper and Kekulé rested on two main postulates the quadriivalency of carbon.and the capacity of the carbon atom for mutual linking or combining together to form a carbon "chain". By this hypothesis of the mutual linking together of carbon atoms - which waslater confirmed by experiment - it was possible to explain the formation of organic compounds containing a large number of carbon atoms. On the foundation of their postulates two postulates moreover they showed how the molecular constitution or mutual linking together of the atoms of a compound could be represented diagrammatically and the relstions between different compounds made readily intelligible. In his classic paper "On a New Chemical Theory" the paper offered here in its first appearance advanced beyond Kekulé by representing the constitutions of the compounds by means of GRAPHIC FORMULA in which as at the present day the valencies pf the atoms are represented by lines.his formulae are similar to those at present in use."Findlay pp. 34 ff"The theory of Kekulé and Couper gave the chemists the means of solving the problems of chemical constitution; and by means of the graphic or constitutional formulae it became possible to represent the molecular constitution of known compounds and to foresee the possible existence of isomeric compounds."Findlay.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1858 C. - Ostwald's Klassiker No. 183. - Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book in Chemistry" pp. 417-425. - Exhibition of First Editions of Epochal Achievements in the History of Science Berkeley 1934.

The papers by Malus is his first two papers on the refraction of light and Laplace's paper is the memoir in which he commented Malus' paper and Huygen's refraction law. "In 1788 Haüy found experimentally that Huygen's law was true only in certain special cases but in 1802 Wollaston found experimental evidence for the Huygenian construction the second Wollaston paper offered. In ´"Mémoire sur la mesure du pouvoir réfringent" the first paper offered Malus showed that Wollaston's experiments were incomplete and so the French corpuscularian physicists did not trust Wollaston's results. They thought moreover that Wollaston was associated with Tmomas Young and therfore with the new wave hypothesis. In this situation the Institute on January 1808 proposed a prize which required an experimental and theoretical explanation of double refraction. The French "Newtonian" scientists hoped that Malus would find a precise and general law for double refraction within the framework of an emission theory of light. Malus was a skilled mathematician and during 1807 he had carried out experiments on double refraction. By december 1808 Malus had finished his experimental investigations which verified the Huygenian law. What remained was a theoretical deduction of the law. In January 1809 Laplace published a memoir in which he deduced Huygen's law law within the framework of Newtonian mechanics using the principle of least action and Malus considered this an insolence which deprived him of the priority. In 1810 Malus von the prize for his "Théorie sur la double réfraction" published in 1811."DSB IX p. 73. unknown
